    摘要: To provide a method of manufacturing polyarylene sulfide (PAS) while efficiently recovering an organic amide solvent at a low energy cost, without using an organic solvent, from washing wastewater produced by washing a raw material mixture containing PAS and an organic amide solvent using a solvent containing water; a method of manufacturing PAS by reducing the amount of water supplied when washing the raw material mixture using a solvent containing water; and PAS manufactured by these methods. A method according to the present invention includes: a step of mixing a solvent containing water and a raw material mixture that contains PAS and an organic amide solvent, and then washing the PAS; a step of obtaining a separated liquid by solid-liquid separation; and a step of separating the separated liquid into distilled vapor having a smaller amount of the organic amide solvent and a recovered liquid having a larger amount of the organic amide solvent by heating, where the heating is performed utilizing an increase in temperature based on compressing the distilled vapor and/or compressing a heat medium heat-exchanged with the distilled vapor.
